The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollocking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.
His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.
He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.
The Autumn Wind is a raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47600.jpg |

As a neutral fan from afar. Hull FC are generally viewed by the RL public as a much bigger club than Hull KR. Hull are a team of great tradition and made GF's and CC finals while being a steady playoff team for many years. Hull KR play on a social club car park and only thing of note they have achieved since tv's were colour is extension of the bike shed their fans stand in an extra 10 metres each season.

Please call again. Always excellent to get an external perspective. |

| Quote: BarnetFC "I think Sky is the classic example of why a monopoly never works, in any walk of life. They're currently paying far less than they should be for RL because nobody else is interested in it, despite it being their second most watched sport. ESPN/Aviva/ITV pay more for RU which less people want but more broadcasters want. Their coverage is based around Eddie who will call the name of the ball carrier wrong three times in each set (on a good night) and Stevo.
Now Stevo has basically morphed into one of those computer games where they get a commentator to record 20 or so stock phrases that play out randomly during the action. All he does now is sit there and recite the following (and a few others) in a different order
Good post. I also wish they'd drop the 'worlds slowest relay race' pre-match analysis where the camera follows a presenter around for a bit then moves to the next one. Comical but a little bit crap.
Reffing needs sorting before Eddie and Stevo tho IMHO.

I agree, I could put up with Andy Pandy & Superted commentating as long as the ref situation is addressed, being shocking this season! |

The commentary last night was yet again biased nonsense. Lineham scored a try and had some pretty good runs etc. yet this is virtually ignored. Yet when the Sky team's beloved Leeds were paying Wakefield they never stopped banging on about Keinhorst who basically did nothing all game, certainly less than Chris Green did last night who barely got a mention.

Huff FC are the biggest club on Humberside. Hull KR have a smaller stadium, a less professional outfit [Willie Mason anyone?] and less fans. |

You can call me what you like, the fact that you thought of it is a worry, and that your moto is "the gentle touch" is even more disturbing , so I think I'm going to give this conversion a miss The End  |

Yeah,10-5 was one hell of a stuffing,at least you can remind yourself whenever you go into the bar at C.P.
Keep `em coming b.t.w. you are far more entertaining than the original burke that passed for a comedian. |

As another neutral fan I concurr, there is simply no comparison between the clubs.
However Hull were very poor last night and whilst I appreciate you had injuries, as did Wigan, Hull still fell a long way short on the pitch and I would have thought the game would have been a lot closer. The game at the KC earlier in the season was quite similar, where Hull had a much stronger team out, and was also a disappointment and one sided. On paper Hull have some good players but need to strengthen a lot imo to really challenge for honours. |
